Southern California's outlook is quite serious for LA, Bakersfield, Blythe, Imperial, and other inland communities.

There are layers of challenge here, including very severe heat increases, drought trend, and more intense, more irregular atmospheric rivers.  We also see a very intense hot spot for deluge-like precipitation appear over Bakersfield.  

In Northern California, we find potential for building long-term resilience.  This region begins south of the Bay Area at about Half Moon Bay, extends to the eastern edge of about Napa, and returns to hug the coast all the way up to Eureka.

Inland, Massachusetts has pretty solid climate preservation in the projections and great resilience potential.  But by and large, it's looking pretty rough along the coast, especially around greater Boston.  This video also identifies emerging serious flooding risks associated with the Merrimack River watershed.

In this video, we'll walk through the projections for Vermont's climate at 2C across many other factors, and Dr. Emily will share some resources to let you learn more about location-specific flooding risks, as well as important work going on in Vermont to strengthen local food systems.

In this video we'll walk through the climate projections on a wide range of factors for New Hampshire, which do present both challenges and opportunities for this state.  

West Virginia looking strong.

This outlook contains details for Memphis, Chattanooga, Nashville, and Knoxville- but the sleeper hit is really the country in central Tennessee, outside of Murfreesboro.  You all are looking nice.  

We've got some serious challenges building in parts of South Carolina, and potential opportunities emerging in others.

Kentucky is looking at both challenges and potential opportunities in these projections, and the state's responsible care of water and diversified economy are added strengths worth considering.

This outlook for Delaware is extremely difficult, with major implications for regional transportation.  

These projections for Rhode Island show great cool summer preservation, but we are looking at a significant landscape transformation due to the major loss of winter cold duration and intensity.  

Shocker- Mississippi looks hot!

The projections are showing greater increases in heat duration than heat intensity.  And excellent potential for landscape stability in large parts of this state. There is some fascinating resilience potential in the ancient landscapes of this beautiful state.

Dr. Emily shares both the challenges and the opportunities facing all our friends in Missouri.

You won't be shocked that Vegas is projected to pick up a lot more days over 105 by 2C, but Dr. E was very interested in the relative stability she found in other parts of the state.  

For those watching solar field developments, it's worth noting there are major signs for deluge-type rain emerging over Tonopah.  

Kansas is looking at some challenging heat increases in these projections, but this may be an outlook within adaptation range. 

Arkansas. 105+ heat, seriously increased wildfire risks, and deluge signals. 

Nebraska outlook, plus the regional and economic stability that we can visualize more clearly now that we can see where and how Nebraska is in play.  

If you're interested in food systems and you haven't considered Omaha's role in our present and our 2C future, this is a state-level outlook worth studying.

Dr. Emily shares a slice of the talk she gave at ESF's Earth Week 2025, including detailed projection info, as well as ground notes from Rochester to Utica.
